The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Deleted group policies still showing when running gpresult

Asked by gregfranklin99 in Active Directory, Windows 2003 Server, Microsoft Server

Tags: , ,

I had a few group policies created on my test domain controller, one for mapped drives, another for a screen saver, and another for restricted internet usage.  I figured having too many group policies would slow down start up time so I just put all of these in the default domain policy for now and deleted the custom group policy objects.  I noticed that my mapped drives aren't working even though it is part of the deafult domain policy.  Also, I have deleted the other policies, not removed them, actually deleted them, yet they appear when I do a gpresult.  Any ideas??
